Default Radiator help??

Alright so i found out there is a big crack in my radiator just below the cap, hopefully due to old age heating/cooling. Any input on the best place to get a replacement. Quote from the shop was around 650 to put a new one in, 350 or so for the part.

wow... thats crazy usually a oem replacement is like $120
smh... if thats the case you mine as well get a megan racing aluminum radiator for $250 and thats a upgrade!!!

to be honest replacing the radiator isn't a serious job to do... it's simple

1. release both upper mounting brackets
2. remove the both hoses that connect to radiator
3. pull radiator out
4. and reinstall the new radiator putting the hoses back on the the mounting brackets back on!!!

1 hour job max
